A two DVD collection of Billboards Best Hip Hop, Lil Wayne & Black Eyed Peas. Wayne began his industry ascendance as one of the Hot Boys, a short-lived Cash Money Records all-star group. After establishing himself as a successful solo artist, he grew to become a critical favorite, known especially for his entertaining underground mixtapes. A pair of popular '05 mixtapes further established Wayne as a dexterous freestyle rapper and helped garner additional interest in his music among listeners who weren't part of the usual Cash Money constituency. By the end of the... year, Wayne's reputation was such that Tha Carter Vol. 2, his next Cash Money album, debuted at number two on Billboard's album chart upon its December release, and did so without the benefit of a smash hit or the productions of workhorse Mannie Fresh, who had left Cash Money. With his southern charm and soft spoken voice, Lil Wayne is takin' over hip hop. This DVD thoroughly explores the worldwide phenomenon that is the Black Eyed Peas. When discussing the characterization of the group, status quo is a term that will more than likely Not come up during the conversation. As a matter of fact, judging from their distinctive sound and style, one would probably be safe to assume that outside the box is the only place they feel comfortable. The Black Eyed Peas have been able to successfully dodge Hip Hops many pigeon-holes and firmly establish themselves inside a personalized niche amongst the materialism and violence that often saturates rap music.
